Pastor Adeboye Bans Braids and Heavy Makeup for RCCG Clergy

The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has openly criticized clergymen who wear braided hair and clergywomen who use false eyelashes and heavy makeup. During the church’s recent annual convention, he announced that these trends among church workers would no longer be accepted.
“In Yorubaland, the only men who braid their hair are Sango priests, the god of thunder,” Adeboye remarked. “Some say this is a new age, and we must adapt to modern trends, but not in this mission. Even after I’m gone, this will not be allowed.”
He made it clear that any pastor, particularly female pastors, who appears overly made up like a Nollywood star would be removed from the altar. “You may not like it, but if you are my children, you can’t defy me. Real men don’t wear makeup because they believe God made no mistakes in their creation.”
Adeboye further questioned the use of false nails, stating, “When you begin to fix false nails, I wonder what you are trying to achieve. If God wanted to make you a bird, He would have given you false nails and eyelashes.”
He urged those who take pleasure in unconventional appearances to repent and embrace modesty. “You can quote me on this: If anyone questions why you are making these changes, tell them, ‘Daddy GO said so,'” he concluded.
